A predictable film noir bouyed by its cast and atmosphere.

Cinapse

Great performances and old school tension are the key ingredients here, and they come together for a pretty deliciously intimate little crime thriller.

The Playlist

Even in its closing moments, Bluebird deceives its viewers. Just as the audience is about to give the film some credit for its performances and other worthwhile elements, Guez undermines it...

Rated: C+

Aaron Peterson

The Hollywood Outsider

It is a surprisingly touching film about a man wrestling with his own fate, and this generally restrained touch of both Guez and Møller are what keeps this Bluebird flying high.

Rated: 6.5/10

an elegant slow-burn noir whose ex-con protagonist remains a prisoner to his own brooding masculinity

Film Threat

As the film morphs from a character study into crime film, the action grows more taut, as it ought to.

Rated: 8/10

A convicted man is serving the remainder of his sentence at a fleabag hotel ran by a single woman and her daughter. He is drawn back into a life of crime when he kills a drug dealer for raping the teen girl. "A Bluebird in My Heart" is the typical revenge movie with solid performances and a strong cinematography. The unexpected but beautiful friendship between the conman and the girl is the emotional core of the movie.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
